CUFF-HOLDER.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 732,305, dated June 30, 1903.

Application filed July 19, 1902. Serial No. 116,260. (No model.)

To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that I, CHARLES H. LEAOH, a citizen of the United States, residing at Orchards, county of Clarke, and State of Washington, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Gufi-Holders, of which the following is a specification.

My invention relates to a new and useful improvement in cuff-holders, and has for its object to provide a cuff-holder which may be pinned to the inside of the coat-sleeve at any point desired, so that the cuff will be detached from the shirt and may be removed with the coat and always extend the desired distance from the end of the coat-sleeve.

With these ends in view this invention consists in the details of construction and combination of elements hereinafter set forth and then specifically designated by the claim.

In order that those skilled in the art to which this invention appertains may understand how to make and use the same, the construction and operation will now be described in detail, referring to the accompanying drawings, forming a part of this specification, in which Figure 1 is a perspective view of a cuff having my improved holder applied thereto; Fig. 2, a perspective view of the holder alone.

The holder consists of a flat strip A, curved to conform with the curve of the cuff and also of the coat-sleeve, and extending out from the concaved side of the strip is a button B, adapted to be buttoned anywhere desired to the cuff. Secured to one end of the strip,upon

the convexed side of the same, is a spring-pin C, the free end of which is pointed, and the strip A at this end is bent so as to form a sheath D for the reception of the pointed end of the pin, the holder then acting the same as an ordinary safety-pin. It will thus be seen that after the holder is buttoned into the cuff the cuff may be inserted in the coatsleeve and by means of the pin 0 pinned to the lining of the sleeve, and thus by pinning at different points the cuff may be adjusted so as to extend more or less from out of the sleeve, as desired, and by simply removing the coat the cuffs are removed therewith, so as not to become soiled in washing the hands or while working.

Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new and useful is In a cuff-holder, a strip of metal curved 1011- gitudinally, and having a sheath formed by bending an integral portion of the strip, a button attached centrally of the strip on the concaved side, and a pin secured to the outer convexed side, the said button adapted to be inserted ina cuff from the outside and having the pin exposed to engage the interior of the sleeve and the sheath, as and for the purpose described.

In testimony whereof I have hereunto af-
